1 HROUGH this pictorial edi-
tion, the editors have endeav-
ored to mark with tangible
evidence the work and play
that has been yours at Indi-
ana. From the classrooms, the
dance, the game, the concert,
the corner has come realistic
testimony of these activities.
If you may look back years
hence and live again, through
this Oak, those hours spent
at Indiana, the editors will
know a certain sense oi ac-
complishment.

TO THE
SENIORS . .
Dr. King and "Tunne\ '
Four student years at Indiana
are now a \'itally significant part
of your experience. This college
has given you some of the tools
necessary for a happy, useful
life. Indiana's ideals of denio-
cratir co-operation, fair play,
high purpose, and professional
integrity are surely part of your
own equipment as citizens and
teachers in the Commonwealth.
It is now your great privilege to
use the best that you have
gained here in helping to solve
the i)roblems of a world that can
not and must not go backward.

An innovation in the Business
Education Department this year
was the addition of a special course
in commercial art for those stu-
dents enrolled in the Retail Selling
major field.
In line with the National De-
fense policy, the Business Educa-
tion Department went on a Na-
tional Preparedness Program basis
during the second semester. Special
non-credit drill courses open to all
students of the Department were
ofTered in machine practice, short-
hand dictation, typing skill, and
laboratory work in bookkeeping.

A music teacher nuis*^ lTa\e more
than a knowledge of music. He
should ha\"e a broad educational
outlook. In order to meet these
specifications set u]) 1)\ superin-
tendents, this Department's cur-
ricuhmi is kept flexible so as to be
able to meet the changes in the
field.
Indiana's graduates are well pre-
pared because of the excellent fac-
ulty and superior equii^ment. Peri-

and special music jirograms play
an important part in thi- De;)art-
mcnt'- work.

policy of fortifying the American
home first was integrated in nutri-
tion and consumer education class-
es recenth introduced. These were
conducted by the Department in

Highly successful graduates re-
flect the Art Department's thor-
ough training. The Art faculty
consists of eight teachers of wide
and varied experience in both edu-
cation and fine arts. Housing in
the main floor of the Arts Building
with up-to-date equipment lends
an atmosphere conducive to fine
work. An art-structure method
of creative expression emphasizes
development and thinking rather
than skills. Radio broadcasts and
a movie in color of the Depart-
ment's major activities were in-
novations in 1941.

Cooperation between the college
and the Laboratory School has ex-
panded this year. A department of
foreign languages was added, and
French and Spanish were taught.
French was also made available in
the Laboratory School.
Additional space for the science
department on the first floor of
Leonard Hall allowed more labora-
tory classes to be offered.
Ai)i)roximately forty people were
graduated from the Division's
new ])iIot-training course this year.
This is being sponsored by the
Civil Aeronautics Authority.
The function of the Elementary
Division is the preparation of
teachers for kindergarten, primary,
intermediate, and rural school posi-
tions.
This Division has a broad
course of stud\' which makes in-
valuable contributions to the
knowledges, skills, and cultures
that are essential for happy, intel-
ligent, efificient citizenship. Tech-
niques for imparting these knowl-
edges are carefully developed.
Indiana has an enviable reputa-
tion because of the efficiency of its
elementary teachers in service.

The English Dejiartment is
steadily working on the improve-
ment of standards of language
usage.
The introduction of double pe-
riods of composition in order to
use the laboratory- method of
teaching writing was an innova-
tion. Increased indixidual at-
tention helped students who
showed a desire to help them-
selves.
Geography
The Geography Department
has developed three major lines
of endeavors recently. It has
taken over a portion of the
ground school for the aviation
course. Mr. Da\is has enlarged
his field work to include -South

Mathematics
The aim and purpose of the
Mathematics Department is to
prepare well-trained teachers to
enter the mathematics field. To
that end courses are provided in
pure mathematics for students
majoring in the subject and in
techniques of teaching mathe-
matics for both elementary and
secondary students.
Education
The main feature which dis-
tinguishes Indiana from other
non-professional schools is its
Education Department. This is
the only department that serves
every other department directly.
Subjects such as Psychology and
Place and Purpose of Education
in the Social Order are handlofl
by the Education Department.

Physical Education
To the \aried list of acti\ ities
of the Physical Education De-
partment \'arsit>' track has been
added this year. Two replace-
ments occurred in the faculty.
Greater stress and more interest
in football was also evident. As
in previous years individual and
community health was empha-
sized in hygiene classes.
Science
An increase in the enrollment
of the Department's classes ne-
cessitated the addition of new
laboratories. With this expan-
sion on the first floor of Leonard
Hall classes are now operated on
a full laboratory basis. This De-
partment also has the distinction
of at sometime serving the entire
student body.

The imparting to students- of

SENIORS SAGA . . .
In a few days almost three hundred Seniors will garb themselves in
cap and gown and receive the highest honor given any student at Indiana.
'During their four->ear stay on the campus these persons, through their
studies and activities, ha^■e changed from mere adolescents to men and
women read>' to take their places in the field they have chosen.
Four years ago a group of nai\'e, awestricken Freshmen wandered
about the campus, soon to delight in the enthusiasm of their first prom.
As Sophomores they began to try their wings and to merit inclusion in
almost every activit}' on campus. Cultivated suavity, carefree attitude,
and pronounced activit>- indicated that the group had become the Junior
class, as much at ease in the ballroom as in the accustomed classroom.
As Seniors the class awoke to the realization that outings, proms, and
pleasant associations would soon be memories and that the>' would become
members of that great bodv — the Alumni.

COMMENCEMENT . . .
AN EPOCH IN THE LIFE OF A SENIOR
The faint strains of an academic march usher the column of seniors
across the campus to the commencement ceremonies where the hopes
and aspirations of four years are cuhninated. With the speakers chal-
lenge comes the realization that the thoughtful care and guidance of
the administration and the facult\- will he but a memory. The part-
ing of the wa>' has come, and when the cherished diploma is carried
away the student takes so much more than he l)rought.

THE 1941 OAK
Starting its third year of college life, the class of 1942
i3egan to show a narrowing down to students who have an
interest in the teaching profession. As Freshmen, the class
had an enrollment of 495; as Sophomores, 389; its present
status shows 326 students.
Participation in campus affairs has given the individual
members insight into future social and educational activities.
The first meeting of the year was called for the purpose of
organizing the class in order to carry on the activities
planned for the year.
This year's officers, under the sponsorship of Mr. L. H.
Schnell, were: Donald Frischmann, President; Walter Kipp,
Vice-President; Jane Evans, Secretary; Samuel Hogue,
Treasurer; Robert Swanson, Assistant Treasurer.
The Junior Spring Dance, held on March 22, 1941 in
Recreation Hall, proved to be the most popular activity.

tives were Jane Lewis, Robert McGrew, and Russell

THE 1941 OAK
Last September four lumdred and fifty freshmen strolled
upon the Indiana campus. Slightly awestricken they gazed
about at fellow classmates and sophisticated upperclassmen,
at the campus that since has grown familiar and loved, at
the facult\- who have come to be admired and respected.
With the bustle and confusion of registration over,
schedules were memorized and classes began to assume that
faintly monotonous air of regularity; the confused blur of
foreign faces slowly catalogued itself into distinct personali-
ties. Realization came upon these people that they are a
group — a large and important group — the Class of 1944.
As such they began to assert themselves. Meeting for
the first time, they are introduced to and directed by their
sponsor, Inez Buchanan. To find suitable officers for the
class, the group selected a nominating committee composed
of one representative from each department. With candi-
dates presented, ballots were cast and the results awaited.

Following the election plans for the Freshman Pnjm were
formulated and on the fifteenth of February the freshmen
enjoyed the fruits of their labor in Recreation Hall to music
sujiplied by Johnnie Mac and his Orchestra.
From the Freshman Class have come outstanding par-
ticipants in the college activities and functions. The foot-
ball, basketball, boxing, and wrestling squads were all aug-
mented by the presence of freshman athletes; both Penn
and Oak staffs contained names of many freshmen ; scholastic
achievements were particularly outstanding among fresh-
man students.
As the school year closes registration day with all its con-
fusion seems very far away. When this year's class rea]>
pears on campus, they will be up]:)erclassmen ready to parti-
cipate even more freely in campus affairs. Indiana will be
no longer new and strange to them.

Kappa Delta Pi, national honor society in
education, was incorporated at the University
of Illinois in 1911. Its purpose is "to encourage
outstanding contributions to education."
Members of Kappa Delta Pi are selected
for their scholarship, leadership, and other de-
sirable personal qualities. To be elected to
membership in Kappa Delta Pi is the greatest
honor that can come to any student at In-
diana.
During the year Beta Gamma Chapter has
been active on the Indiana campus. The
breakfast meeting in the fall in honor of Dr.
William H. Kilpatrick, leading educator and
laureate member of Kappa Delta Pi, excellent
monthly meetings, and the ever great Alumni
Banquet made the year a truly successful one.

A national honorary journalistic fraternity,
Alpha Phi Gamma is established for the purpose
of promoting the welfare of the college through
the recognition of indi\iclual ability and achieve-
ment in the field of journalism. A high scholastic
standard and participation in college publica-
tions are qualifications for membership.
During the year the members made critical
studies of projects which pledges submitted as
prerequisities to the formal initiation.
In the Spring this year the fraternity revived
its traditional April Fool's Da>' edition, The
lyCdiana I>ikk.
Included in the membership this \ear were the
present editors of the PoDi and the Oak, and two
former editors of the latter.

Kappa Chapter of Pi Omega Pi started the
year off with the initiation of new^ members. In
November Pi Omega Pi and Gamma Rho Tau
held their annual joint banquet at Rustic Lodge.
Among the varied professional meetings was
included a discussion of professional standards
by one of the alumni.
In keeping with the precedent set by last
year's members, the election and installation of
officers took place in the early part of December.
The main social function in the spring con-
sisted of the annual Pi Omega Pi outing at the
school lodge. The pledging of eligibles also took
place at this time of the 3'ear.

The Panhellenic Association, which Ht-
erally means embracing all Greeks, does
just as the name implies — serxes to bind
together all sororities on the campus. It
is composed of two rejiresentatives from
each sorority.
The initial social function of the year
was the Panhellenic Tea, which brought
the freshman girls into closer contact with
the sorority girls.
With the holiday season came the most
gala affair, the Panhellenic Christmas
Dance. On this occasion Paul Hickson
and his Washington and Jefferson College
band created the terpsichorean atmos-
phere in true festive style.
During the year the Panhellenic Asso-
ciation contributed to two outside groups,
the Tuberculosis and the Community

ALPHA GAMMA
Alpha Sigma Alpha, a social-professional sor-
orit\', was founded at Farmville, Mrginia, in
IQOl. Since then the sorority has grown to in-
clude twenty-h\"e chapters. The local unit, Alpha
Gamma, was the third to be established and has
been particularh- active since 1928 when it was
reinstated on the Indiana campus.
This season proved to be a busy one for the
.Alpha Sigs. .After the initiation of new members
an exciting rushing season period began. The
members entertained freshmen guests at a gay
ranch party and later in the year at a gala dinner-
dance. Eight girls represented Alpha Gamma at
the Cleveland Regional Convention and returned
with many clexer idea.- of benefit to the group.
The girls enjo\ed man\- activities together, such
as a theatre party in Pittsburgh, breakfast hikes,
and many other informal events. The Panhel-
lenic Dance at Christmas, the Alumnae Lunch-
eon in Pittsburgh, and the Founder's Day Lunch-
eon were highlights on the social program.

The second semester brought the formal rush
part\', the celebration of Courtesy Day, Found-

LAMBDA
Sigma Sigma Sigma, a national educational
sorority in teacher-training, was founded at
Farm\ille, X'irginia, in 1898. Choosing the open
motto, A Sigma — 'Faithful Unto Death,' and
having as its purpose to build character and to
stimulate high endeavor, its founders created
high ideals and standards. This credo has been
accepted in' the thirty-two chapters scattered
throughout the I'nited States.
Many different kinds of Tri Sigma activities
combine to give an animate description of
Lambda Chapter.

DELTA
During the year '40 and '41 the Tau's have
completed an interesting schedule of activities.
With patronesses and akimnae as guests, the
members of the Delta chapter obser\ ed Found-
er's Day tradition at a banquet at College Inn on
November 2. At a breakfast later in the month
new members received the silver anchors by
which Tau girls are recognized on campus. Early
in December, in answer to coconut invitations,
twent\' freshmen accepted the challenge to be
shipwrecked in the South Sea Islands for the
sorority's informal rush party.
Following Christmas activities, the annual
patronesses' tea was held in the Activities Cot-
tage, and the freshmen were again entertained
at a formal party. March brought new pledges,
and April, the inevitable Black Friday with much
hilarity at the expense of the new girls. In May
the girls entertained their mother's at a tea, and
brought their \ear to a close with a farewell party
for the ten seniors.

FRATERNITIES
The thirt\-third year of fraternalism at Indiana has just slipped
by for the brothers of Phi Alpha Zeta. Quite as the history of any
organization should read, the fraternity has enjoyed one of the best
years it has ever known.
Change and improvement, always inevitable and welcome in
any living and growing group, was witnessed and experienced dur-
ing the year. However, one phase of Phi Alpha Zeta-ism that under-
went no change was the group's high standards and purposes set
up many years ago. Good fellowship, fraternalism, character, and
scholastic endeavor are still getting their share of attention along
with the advancement of the group as a fraternal organization and
the betterment of the individuals as well-rounded personages.

I 'hi Alpha Zeta was host to one of the largest alumni
;-;atherings on Homecoming Day that it has e\-er enter-
tained. The house was a lnis\- place all (la>- with the
lirothers renewing old ties and making new ones.
Among the social events on the fraternity's calendar
were the Interfraternit}' Dance, the house ]:)arties, and
the [professional meetings. Many enjoyable hours were
also spent around the ping-pong table, the pool table,
the fire])lace, and in an\- corner suitable for a bull
session.
The year's actix'ities culminated in the rushing sea-
son. A smoker was held for the underclassmen at the
house shortly before pledging.

FRATERNITIES
Just off the northeast corner of the Indiana campus stands a
buff-brick house. A sign in the form of a shield and helmet sur-
mounted by three Greek Letters proclaim that this is the home of
Pi Chapter of Sigma Tau Gamma. This Chapter was originally
organized as the Phi Kappa Delta Fraternity. In answer to a need
for wider contacts, the fraternity petitioned Sigma Tau Gamma
National, and with cooperation of local authorities was given its
present status.
Sigma Tau Gamma fosters activities through national and re-
gional conclaves, chapter visitations, honor key awards for scholar-
ship and activities, a plaque for the most efficient chapter, and a
standardized pledge-study course. Each year the fraternity chooses
the outstanding senior member as Honor Man.

FRATERNITIES
In 1916 Phi Sigma Pi was founded in Warrensbury, Missouri,
on the ideals of knowledge, training, and fellowship. Eta chapter
was organized from the local Omega Chi in 1929, when college fra-
ternities everywhere in the United States were becoming national
organizations. The national order of Phi Sigma Pi now numbers
about 5,500 men in all walks of life.
Dr. John Keith, former president of Indiana State Teachers
College, was an enthusiastic Phi Sig. After his death Mrs. Keith
presented his pin to Eta Chapter to be used as a memorial award.
Each year at a formal service the pin is bestowed upon the junior
having the highest scholastic average, to be worn by him the suc-
ceeding year.

Headed by James McKee the Student Council experi-

On November 7, 8, and 9 the Council played host to the
annual conference of the Co-operative Association of the
Pennsylvania State Teachers Colleges. The Conference
theme was "Every Co-operative Member Participating in
His College Program." Dr. E. K. Fretwell, noted educator
of Columbia LJniversity, attended as guest speaker and
advisor. During the course of the business meetings and
social gatherings the delegates had the opportunit>- to not
only see the physical plant of the college but also the school
as it normally functions.
During Christmas vacation the Council sent George
Curley to represent Indiana at the Annual Conference of
the National Student Federation of America, and on Febru-
ary 21, 22, and 23 delegates attended the Pennsylvania In-
tercollegiate Student Government at Penn State. Delegates
were also sent this spring to the Eastern States Conference
at Columbia Lniversity. Suggestions on all student prob-
lems were brought back by the delegates.

STUDENT CO-OPERATIVE
ASSOCIATION
The Student Co-operative Association is the group that
handles the finances of the student body. Its membershi])
inckides sixteen students, elected by the student body, and
nine faculty members, selected by the administration.
Officers for the year were: President, Glenn Davis: \'ice-
President, John Freed; Secretary, Robert McGrew; Treas-
urer, Paul Woodring.
One of the most important items of the year's work was
the drawing up and adoption of the budget for the regular
session. The income, derived chiefly from student activity
fees and bookroom profits, supports every campus activity
that requires funds from the Association in order to function.
These include varsity athletics, lectures, concerts, assem-
blies, conferences, intramural sports, publications, weekly
dances, and the College Lodge. The Association operated
on a budget of approximately thirty thousand dollars this
year.
The group, representative of each of the four classes of
the school, strives to the greatest extent to bring to the stu-
dents the most varied, justifiable, and beneficial extra-
curricular program possible.

The Men's Student League, which is made up of all men
students enrolled in the College, is organized for the purpose
of co-operating with the administrati\e authorities of the
College to promote personal and group responsibility toward
the guidance and regulation of the afifairs and duties of men
students.
Two representatives from the Senior, Junior, Sophomore,
and Freshman classes, plus the Dean of Men, an e\-officio
member, comprise the Executive Board of the League,
which acts as a governing body to which all problems affect-
ing men students as a whole, are brought. This board
chooses its own president, who selects committees for the
various affairs arising during the school year.
One of the most important parts of the work of the
League is the enforcement of freshman customs. The Sopho-
more Tribunal, selected from the League, and composed of
five men of the Sophomore Class meets to decide upon rules
for the customs period and to mete out punishment to re-
fractorv Freshmen.

Central Treasurer
Most recent addition to the campus organization roster
is the Central Treasury which was set up to take care of the
rising need for a centralized system of inter-school account-
ing. The Board of Trustees approved the objectives of se-
curing uniformity in accounting records, establishing con-
tinuity between business otficers and their successors, afford-
ing systematic methods for handling business transactions,
and assisting in keeping their activities on a sound basis.
With the consent and approval of the Board Dr. Clinton
M. File was named Central Treasurer by Dr. King.
All funds of organizations are deposited in a central fund
against which checks are written. The Central Treasury
thus renders banking services to organizanions.
This system provides that auditing services will be avail-
able to members at all times. It further provides that it will
facilitate the internal management of organizations, giving
students official business procedure conforming to modern
procedures. Small service charges borne by each member
take care of the direct expenses of the Treasury.

PARTICIPATION COMMITTEE
ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE
The purpose of the Committee on Stu-
dent Participation in College Manage-
ment is to study existing conditions and
to recommend methods for eventually
achieving a maximum of student parti-
cipation in college management.
The committee includes five faculty
members and seven students, the latter
elected from the various departments and
the Student Council. It is hoped that by
the trial-and-error method the best will
evolve, thereby increasing student par-
ticipation. The Committee does not make
final decisions: they are left to the stu-
dents.
In the organization of the Assembly
Committee, the suggestions of the Stu-
dent Participation in College Manage-
ment were followed.
A representative was selected from each
of the six departments and the Student
Council. Dr. Ralph Heiges was the fac-
ulty chairman of the Committee and
meetings were held to plan the programs.
Members aided in arranging and present-
ing some programs. Representatives of
the community participated and there
were presentations by the departments.
Not the least part of the weekly assembly
was the devotional exercise.

The Non-Resident League was organ-
ized to bring together women students
commuting from Indiana and neighbor-
ing towns. The League has grathialh",
through the >ears of its existence, gained
recognition on the campus.
Each month the Xon-Resident women

tions.
During the first semester the commut-
ing women invited the League to an out-
ing held at the School Lodge, and l)etween
semesters non-resident students held a
part}' in Recreation Hall. Also during the
second semester the League jointly held
various parties. The purpose of these

of nearly forty members, the club selected
as its ofificers for the year Walter Hill,
President; Clarence Stephenson, Vice-

to bring into closer religious and social
contact all the Lutheran students attend-
ing the College. The organization has an
enrollment of one-hundred and ninety

During the year the members of the
Club engaged in a "get-together" party,
a Hallowe'en party, and a Christmas
party, held in the Lutheran Church. A
Sunday- evening X'esper Service was con-
ducted with the Reverend Pfohl, Luth-

The Young Men's Christian Associa-
tion has successfully fulfilled its purpose
of promoting friendship among the stu-
dents by correlating their religion with
their college lives.
Spiritual Life Week, which was spon-
sored jointK- by the Y.W. and Y.M. from
January 26 through February 1, featured
several guest speakers. Op!)ortunities for
student conferences were offered. Some
of this group's other activities this year
were the steak fry at the College Lodge,
activity nights in the g>'m, and man\- dis-
cussions on campus and world ])n)l)lems.
"Our Ideals," the 1940-41 theme of the
Y.W.C.A., was presented in its personal,
social, and religious phases. Impressive
events were the Candlelight and White
Gift Carol Sing .services. Weekly devo-
tions were held at the Monday Morning
Watch Services and the Thanksgi\ing
and Easter serxices. The Mardi Gras
party, Lodge outing. Palm Beach party,
and frequent teas entertained members.

The American College Quill Club is a national non-
fraternal, non-secret organization, neither social nor
honorary in its primary purpose, but designed to en-
courage creative writing among college students.
Ger Rune, the local chapter, has its name, ritual,
and nomenclature based upon the Anglo-Saxon culture.
Admission is by original manuscript submitted anony-
mously. Since the time of its admission in 1930, Ger
has become one of the most active runes. It annually
publishes Scroll, in which the best of the past year's
literary output is published. This magazine is widely
distributed on the Indiana campus.
Quill's national organ is Parchment in which are pub-
lished manuscripts submitted by the fifteen runes and
undergraduates from colleges throughout the nation.
In December, at Mrs. Macdonald's house, pledges
were initiated into full membership.
Officers for the year were: Chancellor, Charlotte
Stidham; \'ice-Chancellor, Mrs. Helen F. Egleston;
Warden of the Purse, Julian Goldman; Scribe, Elisabeth
Gosnell; Co-sponsors, Mrs. Helen F. Egleston and Mrs.

In keeping with the precedents set liy past editors with respect to layout, de-

to create a book which will not merely meet the standards of yearbook critics but,
more important, will find fa\or among the administration, faculty, and student
body.
With this latter aim well in mind, the Staff has worked to ]:)roduce an artistic
and appealing annual, one that will show in a tangil)le wa\' the campus as it has

INDIANA PENN
Financed by the Student Co-operative Asso-
ciation, the hidhuia Penn is designed to express
and reflect the opinions of the students of the
College. In the second place, it serves as a rec-
ord of the activities of the College. Currently it
carries a kaleidoscopic picture of all the happen-
ings during the week: the large and small, the
ridiculous and the sublime, the commuter and
the boarder, the non-fraternity and the frater-
nity. The Penn conducts an active exchange
system ■with teachers colleges, liberal arts col-
leges, high schools, and universities in several
states.
For several years representati\"es from the
staff have gone to the Columbia .Scholastic Press
Association's annual meeting in New York, re-
turning with fresh ideas and enthusiasms.
The staff' of the Penn is selected from inter-
ested students who volunteer their services be-
cause they are interested in journalism. An effort
is made to start promising freshmen so that they
might rise to higher positions as they gain in
experience and amount of service.
The Editors-in-Chief selected by the Publi-
cations Committee were Reed Calhoun, first
semester, and M. Betty Gosnell, second sem-
ester. A second semester innovation was the ap-
pointment of a salaried assistant editor. Ruth
Knowles was faculty adviser while Clinton M.
File acted as financial adviser and Mabel Shouse
as typing adviser.

Ethiopian War, the Spanish civil
war, and the Chino-Jajjanese
trouble, the speaker was able to
give a vivid picture of the world
of toda}' and what it may mean
tomorrow. Mr. Knickerbocker, be-
ing a stern ad\ocate of American
victory, stated that the best way
for the United States to win is by
helping Britain in every possible
way.
One of Indiana's most attractive
stage features this j-ear — particu-

— was the appearance of Jimmv
Stewart, screen star and Academy

in true HoIK wood fashion.

on October 7, at 8 15 o'clock.
The famous actress augmented
her lecture by anecdotes and
excerpts from several of her most
outstanding successes, including
Romeo and Juliet^ Anthony and
Cleopatra^ and Smilin Through.
Miss Cowl gave excellent advice
for future campus dramatic pre-
sentations.
Catherine Littlefield and her
Ballet gave a type of program
foreign to the Indiana campus
since 1936 when Ted Shawn jire-
sented his ensemble of men
dancers. The synchronization
and grace of the Ballet beauti-
fulh blended the dancers into a
single unit that depicted the
graceful "Aurora's Wedding,"
the old-style "Barn Dance," and
the ultra-modern "Cafe Soci-
ety."

LEONARD LITERARY SOCIETY
Through Indiana's years, literary and dramatic talent of a profes-
sional character found its \va>' more and more to our students on
account of the active efforts of Jane E. Leonard who was Preceptress
of the College for fort\-nine \ears. Her portrait now hangs in North
Hall of John Sutton. In memor\' of this pioneer in education we have
Leonard Literary Society.
The organization has brought to the campus this year a top-flight
artist from Hollywood and one from Broadway. It has from its own
Theatre Workshop presented three full-evening pla^s and man\' one
acts. These one-acts along with the full-length plays gave a beginning
experience to many who might never otherwise have had opportunity
to engage in dramatics.
The workshop builds hours of service in theatre experience for
English majors, especially juniors and seniors. It also includes seniors
from other department^-.

Dr. Ir\ing Chevette came to Indiana as head of the Music
Department in 1938 short!}' after recei\ int; his Doctor (il VAu-
cation degrees.
He was born in New York soon after the turn of the present
century. While in high school he studied the clarinet and cello.
After graduation he studied law, acting, pla\ writing, and ad-
vertising, but finally decided upon music. Dr. Cheyette at-
tended the Julliard School of Music and Columbia l'ni\ersit\-
principally.
The Choir of eight}- \oices is one oi the largest music units
on our campus. It is directed l)y Mary H. Muldowne>-. It
participated in a Christmas broadcast and i^resented the
Christmas Nativity program. In March this group appeared
at Carnegie Hall, Pittsburgh. A sacred Choral Concert in the
local Presbyterian church and the annual Music Festival Pro-
gram in our auditorium were two features. Participation in
assemblies and other campus concerts were equalK" important.

mixed group of approximate!)-
sixt\- \oices. Besides its laboratory
work this organization participated
in the Christmas Program, Si)irit-

This organization participated in community-sponsored parades

Under the tutelage of Coaches Miller, Tim-
mons, Prugh and Ewing and with a wealth of
promising material on hand, the 1940 Indiana
football aggregation recorded the second un-
defeated season of the school's history since
1934. The team also won the 1940 mythical
state teachers college championshij).
A strong, untiring, and dependable line a^■er-
aging about 180 pounds was responsible for
cutting down every serious threat of the oppo-
sition. The players who made up this forward
wall were: Balionis, Harkleroad, Hovanec,
Sybinsky, Commella, Brant, Stokes, DiMauro,
and Hohn.
The stars of the team included Freddy
Ruthko, a smashing line- plunger; Don
Schwing, the outstanding passer and leading
scorer; and the extra- point expert. Gene
Schmucker. However, the freshmen. Cutler,
Eckland, Corey, Romeo, Kish, Finn, and

man Ruthko ended with a .342 average. Mc-

When Frostburg came to Indiana, the Boytsmen
adminstered a stinging 9-1 defeat to them. Lock Haven
dropped a close one to Indiana, 5-4, as the Red and
Slaters mustered twelve hits.
As hosts to West Liberty, Indiana hoped to revenge
an earlier 14-4 defeat. The locals came through with
the aid of Sariscak's brilliant mound work to upset the
West Virginians, 8-7. Another revenge was realized
when the Boytsmen beat Duquesne's nine, 12-9.
In the final game, the Indians dropped a light-hitting

Coach Prugh's 1940 tennis squad experienced its
most successful season since tennis was made a varsity
sport in 1934. The squad was victorious in six of its
seven matches while inclement weather forced cancella-
tions with Mansfield, Lock Haven, and Bloomsburg.
The team showed four veterans, Killen, Bruno,
jMotovich, and Jamison, aided by Garber, Marle\-, and
Hogg. ]\Iarle\' and Garber were standouts as they won
e\erv one of their matches. Marley went one step
better by completing the season without losing a single
set.
The court season ojjened at Shippensburg where the
Indians took their initial scalp, 8-1. Duquesne Univer-
sity was the second ^•ictim, 8-1. St. \'incent College and
California Teachers were next, 9-0 and 7-2, respectively.
Clarion went down for the fifth straight triumph, 6-0.
Slippery Rock lost 8-1 for the first home match.
The Pitt Panthers marred a perfect sea.son in a
match that had been postponed earlier in the season.
Marle>- and Garber won the singles and Hogg- Jamison
took the doubles but the score ended in Pitt's favor, 6-3.

TRACK
Track was revived in the spring of 1940 after a lapse of
approximately ten years. Past track history at Indiana is
one of marked success against outstanding teams in 1925-
1926. During these years the college was rej^resented at the
Penn Relays and was victorious in the Two-Mile Relay Race
for Teachers Colleges of the United States.
Thirty-five men answered Coach Timmons' call for track
candidates last spring. Fifteen of these reporting candidates
held no previous track experience. DaiK' workouts were con-
ducted on an informal basis with plans of i:)utting track on a
varsity basis this year.
Eliminations were held last ]May in order to round out a
squad to represent Indiana at the Tri-State Inter-Collegiate
track meet at Geneva College, where the Timmons-tutored
boys made a good showing despite the handicaps connected
with an initial season.
Events open to candidates were: 100, 220, 440, half-mile,
mile, and two-mile runs; low and high hurdles; javelin
thrown weights, pole vault, discus throw, and relay team.
More emphasis is to be placed on track in coming years.

MEN'S
VARSITY "I" CLUB
The Men's X'arsity "I" Clul) consists of
members having earned their ^•arsity letter in
any one of the major sports at Indiana.
Two of the main purposes of the club are
to provide loans for its athletes and to foster
goodwill with our visiting opponents.
The club also had many social contacts dur-
ing the year. At a winter outing held at the
School Lodge, eleven faculty members were
initiated as honorary members of the chili.
As a finale for the season, the chili sponsored
a "\'arsitv \'audeville Show."
WOMEN'S
VARSITY 'T' CLUB
The Women's Varsity "I" Club consists of
girls who have earned 1000 points by active
participation in the Women's Athletic Asso-
ciation. It Is recognized as an honorary ath-
letic association.
The three-fold purpose of the organization
is to continue social contacts with all girls in-
terested in athletics, to further the athletic
program, and to retain ideals and enjoyment
in athletic participation.
The Women's Varsit}- "I" collaborates with
the Women's Athletic Association in staging
the annual play day.

The Women's Athletic Association, the basic
club of all women's sports, was organized to
foster interest and skill in recreational activities,
as well as to develop habits of good-sportsman-
ship and fair play. Since membership is auto-
matically open to all girls at Indiana, the W.A.A.
attempts to attain the whole-hearted support
and co-operation of those taking active part.
Because of the decided opposition to all forms
of inter-scholastic games which exploit the play
impulse and destroy- human values, a well-
rounded intramural program directed by the
Athletic Council has been provided. The tourna-
ments included field hockey, volleyball, basket-
ball, mushball, archery, and individual meets
such as swimming, ping-pong, tennis, shuffle-
board, and fencing. Besides the regular games
played every Monday evening and Friday after-
noon, play nights are frequently' held throughout
the year. By participation in the various acti-
vities and by holding an athletic office, points
for winning a X'arsity "I" can l)e earned.
The Women's Athletic Council consists of
Lena Ellenberger, Lois Teeter, Ruth Pringle,
Helen Shaffer, Fay Miller, Freda Bodendorfer,
and Ruth Jordan.

Field hockey, the initial intra-
mural tournament of the year,
pro\ecl to he extremely successful
among the women athletes. Out
of six teams that entered the tour-
nament, the Sophomore Flashes
were victorious o\er ever>- group
and received the winner's award
for the season.
\'olleyball is the most popular
of all women sports activities.
^^'ith o\'er sixty girls participating
in the tournament, it was inevit-
able many interesting competitive
games would necessarily result.
The junior \\'hiz- Banger team was
acclaimed the champions by beat-
ing all other groups.
Basketball season always brings
hotly-contested games showing
some of the keenest rivalry and
competition in the intramural pro-
gram. The exciting games created
many thrills and spills, but the
greatest up-set came when the
Cheerokee team took o\er each of
the other ten.
Mr. G. G. Hill coaches the Rifle
Club, which this year boasted a
membership of about twenty girls.
The club is affiliated with the Na-
tional Rifle Association. Those
members who meet the standards
set up by the national organization
receive awards, either medals or
brassards.

Realizing the importance and achisihility of athletic
training for all future teachers, the Physical Education
Department has developed one of the most compre-
hensive intramural programs among the state teachers
colleges of Pennsylvania.
The Men's Intramural Committee grew out of the
need for supervision and direction of intramural activi-
ties. Two senior managers chosen by the Athletic Coun-
cil assist Paul H. Boyts in furthering this work. Each
is given an intramural service award, the intramural
jacket.
The chief aims of the program are: pro\iding ath-
letics for present enjoyment; teaching and training stu-
dents in athletic activities; developing habits of good
sportsmanship and fair play; understanding the game
so as to get greater enjoyment from participating in
and watching the game; preparing students to organize
and promote intramural sports in the public schools.
Approximately seventy-five per cent of the men en-
rolled take part in intramurals although no awards are
given for individual sports. Added to the program re-
cently was an Intramural Sports Day. The Intramural
Departments of California, Clarion, Indiana, and Slip-
pery Rock have initiated plans to hold a quadrangular
sports day.

INTRAMURAL
Indiana's intramural sports program
that dates iiack to the Fall of 1932 is
under the supervision of Paul H. Boyts
of the Geography Department. This
feature of the Physical Education De-
])artment was developed in recognition
of the need of athletic training for all
future teachers. Assisting Mr. Boyts
are four students — two senior managers
and two assistant managers. Each
manager serves two semesters after
which he receives the intramural service
award, the intramural jacket. The
four managers this past year have been
Markle DeMezza, Bill Lee, Fred Timm
and Stanley Kochin.
Each year three members of the sen-
ior class who have been most active in
intramurals and who pass the required
test are awarded intramural jackets.
Others are presented official intramural
emblems or efiiciency awards.

WINTER
The Winter Sports Club of In-
diana State Teachers College was
organized during the winter of
1938-39 as part of the intramural
sports program by Paul Boyts, its
present sponsor. The Club has
grown into one of the largest or-
ganizations on the campus. The
membership for the 1940-41 season
numbers over four hundred stu-
dents and faculty.
The purpose of the Club is to
encourage its meml)ers to engage
in healthful outdoor activities. The
College Lodge is the site of most of
its meetings. Each Friday night
and Saturday- afternoon, weather
conditions permitting, the Club
members charter the college bus
and travel to the Lodge for skiing,
snobogganing, and tobogganing.

SPORTS
Other events included several
trips to the Shaffer Ice Palace in
Johnstown to witness college
hockey games, after which skating
was enjoyed b>' the groups. Sev-
eral trips were made to the outdoor
artificial rink at Greensburg. A
trip to the famous winter sports
center at Cooks Forest was also
taken.
Some of the members participate
in hikes through the snow over the
college property. Others engage in
snow battles, making of snow fig-
ures, etc. The Lodge is always
available for dancing. (A "juke-
box" w^as rented by the club this
season for the use of those who
wished to dance between various
outdoor activities.) Refreshments
were served at all events.

TRADITION
For more than half a century Pontiac ha$ been producing QUALITY printing
plates for all types of publication work and has established o reputation for
dependable service which is unexcelled among photo-engravers. Every-
where Pontiac yearbook service men have become known for their friendly,
helpful assistonce and are recognized for their ability as specialists in the
school publication field.
It has become "An American Tradition" for schools to select Pontiac

handled by Pontiac has steadily increased. Hundreds of these staffs have
developed distinctive books with the assistance of Pontiac artists and have
gained recognition for the originality and success of their publications.

publishers of this book for their splendid efforts in producing a fine year-
book. They invite other schools to join the thousands of satisfied Pontiac
clients for assistance in the solution of their engraving problems.
